But if one still has fiat to spend is one accumulating as much as possible?

Even if you’re not on a bitcoin standard it makes more sense to use sats at businesses that accept it. It’s just better tech and user experience. Turn the fiat to sats right before the txn if you’re concerned about volatility

I don’t know one place that accepts BTC around me. Not one. I ask and would use BTC but that’s kind of my point. It’s just not a viable MOE yet. At least in the US. And that’s fine. It’s not there yet. So I’ll spend local currency (USD), some of which I may or may not have sold some BTC to obtain.

I was mainly alluding to online purchases, but it is still very difficult to find brick and mortar businesses that take bitcoin. You can buy gift cards on bitrefill but that can be a hassle.

Wife & I use Fold cards daily including the Amazon gift cards. Spend thousands per month. I also use Lolli to buy gift cards to use. Etc etc.

We take a BTC first approach but more to acquire SATS.
